In earlier versions, jConnect used a TextPointer class with sendData methods for updating a text column in an Adaptive Server or SQL Anywhere database.
The TextPointer class has been deprecated, that is, it is no longer recommended and may cease to exist in a future version of Java.
If your data server is Adaptive Server or SQL Anywhere, use the standard JDBC form to send text data:
PreparedStatement.setAsciiStream(int paramIndex, InputStream text, int length)
or
PreparedStatement.setUnicodeStream(int paramIndex, InputStream text, int length)
or
PreparedStatement.setCharacterStream(int paramIndex, Reader reader, int length)
